Dear Mr. Smith

I am responding to your advertisement in The Daily Observer of 8 January 2011, regarding the
Automotive Sales Representative position. Attached is my CV, showing my education, experience, and
background. As you will see from my CV, I graduated from the University of Watersville in 2007 with an
upper second class honours degree in Business Administration. During my final year I was attracted to
the areas of sales and marketing, and followed a three-term specialist course, which focused on:

• Fundamentals of Marketing / • Business Communications / • Fundamentals of Customer Care / •


Managing Marketing Information Systems / • Promotional Practice / • Sales & Marketing Operations / •
Promotional Practice Management / • Marketing Communication Strategy

My CV lists the jobs that I have held. As you will see, I worked as a trainee 1n the marketing department
of Custom Visuals for two years (2007-2009), where I learned about advertising and organising
promotional events. I was then promoted to the post of marketing executive, where I worked on
planning and implementing advertising campaigns. However, after one year in that position, I decided to
move to Q Cars, where I managed key accounts, especially m the area of car leasing. I learned a
considerable amount about planning and organising events. After two years at Q Cars, I decided to move
on and found a position as marketing manager for SpecTex, a specialist textile company. There I headed
up a small sales team, as well as having responsibility for marketing activities in terms of product
distribution. Throughout my sales and marketing career I have won top sales awards, and, in my last job,
was involved in training other sales representatives in specific sales techniques to increase their sales. I
hope my application will be of interest to you. I am available to come in for interview at a mutually
convenient time. / I look forward to hearing from you. / Yours sincerely / Mary Green

Subject: internship

Dear Ms Bryant

I am interested in applying for the scientific research internship that I recently saw advertised in the
University Career Services Office.

I have had lots of laboratory experience in chemistry, biology, and geology. So, I feel I would be a
suitable candidate. And last summer, I worked as an assistant for a small pharmaceutical company near
my home.

I hope you find my application of interest.

Yours sincerely

Sarah Bentley
